FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to a liquid crystalline compound and a liquid crystal composition containing the same. More particularly, it relates to a new liquid crystalline tricyclic compound having an alkenyl group (alkenyl cyclohexane derivatives), a liquid crystal composition containing the same and a liquid crystal display element using the composition.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Many display elements have been prepared utilizing the characteristics of liquid crystalline compounds such as optical anisotropy and dielectric anisotropy. These elements have been widely used as various applications including watch, calculator, word processor, television or the like, a demand for which is increasing.

A liquid crystal phase is positioned between a solid phase and a liquid phase and is classified roughly into a nematic phase, a smectic phase and a cholesteric phase. A display element using a nematic phase has been inter alia most widely used. As a display mode, various modes have been proposed, but presently three types of twisted nematic (TN) mode, supertwisted nematic (STN) mode and thin film transistor (TFT) mode have been mainly used. In particular, the STN mode is a synthetically excellent mode as a liquid crystal display with a simple matrix mode drive, in view of various characteristics such as display capacity, response speed, angle of view, gradient and others. Further, the STN mode has been widely used in a color display, since it is more inexpensive than the TFT mode.

A liquid crystalline compound required for such display modes should show a liquid crystal phase over a broad temperature range centering in room temperature, a sufficient stability under conditions wherein a display element is used, and sufficient characteristics to drive a display element. However, no single liquid crystalline substance has been found satisfying all such requirements. Now, current status is to prepare a liquid crystal composition having the required characteristics by admixing several to several tens types of liquid crystalline compounds and, if necessary, non-liquid crystalline compounds and to use the composition for a display element.

A liquid crystal composition is required to be extremely stable to moisture, light, heat or air under the condition in which a display element is used, to be stable to an electric field or electromagnetic radiation and further to be chemically stable to any compounds to be admixed. Moreover, a liquid crystal composition should have suitable numerical values, depending upon a display mode or a shape of a display element, of various characteristics such as its optical anisotropy (Δn), dielectric anisotropy (Δε), viscosity (η) and elastic constant ratio K₃₃ /K₁₁ (K₃₃ : Bending elastic constant, K₁₁ : Spraying elastic constant) and the like. In addition, it is important that each component in a liquid crystal composition should have a good solubility. Under the present circumstances wherein colorization of a display and use environments of a display have been diversified, particularly required characteristics are a broad temperature range of a nematic phase, a high elastic constant ratio K₃₃ /K₁₁, a lower viscosity and a mutual good solubility. As the elastic constant ratio K₃₃ /K₁₁ is increased, a steep change in transmittance in the neighborhood of the threshold voltage is brought about to provide a display element with a higher contrast. On the other hand, as the viscosity is reduced, there is provided a display element with a rapid response speed. Those two physical characteristics have been required for the colorization of a display, while a broad temperature range of a nematic phase has been required for the diversification of use environments of a display.

As prior tricyclic compounds having a high NI point and a low viscosity, the following compounds are disclosed:

(a) compounds disclosed in Japanese Patent Kokai No. 57-165328 ##STR2## (b) compounds disclosed in Japanese Patent Kokai No. 05-286873 ##STR3## and (c) compounds disclosed in Journal de Physique, Suppl. No. 3, 36, C1-379, March 1975 ##STR4## In the above formulae, R and R' represent an alkyl group.

Both compounds (a) and (b) are the tricyclic compounds having alkyl groups at both ends, but compounds (a) have a low NI point and a high viscosity and a lower elastic constant ratio K₃₃ /K₁₁ with no good compatibility at a lower temperature. Compounds (b) have a relatively lower viscosity, but a very poor stability due to the presence of a conjugated diene in the side chain. Compounds (c) have a lower elastic constant ratio K₃₃ /K₁₁ similarly to compounds (a) and are not said to have a particularly favorable compatibility at a lower temperature.

The liquid crystalline compounds having an alkenyl group with a higher elastic constant ratio are disclosed in Japanese Patent Kokai Nos. 59-176221, 61-56137 and 61-83136 and Japanese Patent Kohyo No. 63-502284, but none of them could satisfy the requirements for all characteristics of a lower viscosity, a good compatibility at a lower temperature and a higher NI point.

In an effort to overcome these problems, the development of a liquid crystalline compound with improved characteristics has been expected.

After various components are dissolved in an organic solvent capable of dissolving a liquid crystal and mixed, however, the solvent may be distilled off under reduced pressure.

The liquid crystal compounds of this invention are improved and optimized with any suitable additives, depending on the intended applications. Such additives are well known to those skilled in the art and also disclosed in literatures.

The present liquid crystal compounds can be used as a liquid crystal composition for guest-host (GH) mode by incorporating therein dichroic dyes such as merocyanine type, styryl type, azo type, azomethine type, azoxy type, quinophthalone type, anthraquinone type, tetrazine type and the like. The liquid crystal composition of this invention can be further used for NPCA prepared by micro-capsulating nematic liquid crystals or polymer-dispersion type liquid crystal display elements (PDLCD) represented by polymer network liquid crystal display elements (PNLCD) in which three-dimensional network polymer is formed in the liquid crystal.

The alkenylcyclohexane derivatives of formula (I) are preferably prepared by the following processes. 1) The compounds of formulae (I-1) to (I-5) and (I-8) to (I-11) can be prepared by known process using Wittig reaction, e.g., a process described in ORGANIC REACTIONS, Vol. 14, Chapter 3, which is illustrated by the following reaction scheme. ##STR222##

Referring to the above reaction scheme, an aldehyde derivative (10) is reacted with an alkyltriphenylphosphomium halide in an ether solvent such as tetrahydrofuran (THF) or diethyl ether in the presence of a base such as sodium methylate, potassium t-butoxide (t-BuOK) or n-butyl lithium. This reaction is preferably carried out at -20° to 0° C. in an inert gas stream. Subsequent reaction with benzenesulfinic acid or p-toluenesulfinic acid can produce the compound (I).

The aldehyde derivatives (10) can be prepared in accordance with the following reaction scheme. ##STR223##

Referring to the above reaction scheme, an ylide is prepared by the reaction with methoxymethyltriphenyl-phosphonium chloride in the presence of a base such as sodium alcoholate or an alkyl lithium in THF or an ether solvent such as diethyl ether. The ylide is reacted with a cyclohexanone derivative (11) to produce a compound (12). The compound (12) is reacted with a mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid or an organic acid such as formic acid and acetic acid to provide an aldehyde derivative of formula (10-1)(m=0).

Further, the use of the present liquid crystalline compounds in a liquid crystal composition is illustrated by the following use examples.

Use Example 1

A clearing point (Cp.) was 72.4° C. for a nematic liquid crystal composition which comprises:

4-(trans-4-propylcyclohexyl)benzonitrile 24% by weight

4-(trans-4-pentylcyclohexyl)benzonitrile 36% by weight

4-(trans-4-heptylcyclohexyl)benzonitrile 25% by weight

4-(4-propylphenyl)benzonitrile 15% by weight

The above liquid crystal composition enclosed in a twisted nematic cell (TN cell) with a cell thickness of 9 μm had an operating threshold voltage (Vth) of 1.78 V, a dielectric anisotropy (Δε) of 11.0, an optical anisotropy (Δn) of 0.137 and a viscosity at 20° C. (η20) of 27.0 mPa·s.

85 parts of the above liquid crystal composition as a mother liquid crystal were mixed with 15 parts of 1-ethenyl-trans-4-(trans-4-propylcyclohexyl)cyclohexyl-cyclohexane (Compound No. 1) shown in Example 1 and the resulting mixture was measured for physical properties, with the results of Cp.: 85.5° C., Vth: 2.03 V, Δε: 10.2, Δn: 0.132 and η20: 25.9 mPa·s. This composition was allowed to stand in a refrigerator at -20° C. over 40 days, but no crystals or SB phase was observed.

For comparison, the compound (a-1) disclosed in Japanese Patent Kokai 57-165328 wherein R is C₃ H₇ and R' is CH₃ and the compound (c-1) disclosed in Journal de Physique, Suppl. No. 3, 36, C1-379, March 1975 wherein R is C₂ H₅ were synthesized in accordance with the methods illustrated therein, and the resultant compounds were used as comparative compounds in this experiment. 85 parts of the present liquid crystal composition as a mother liquid crystal were mixed with 15 parts of the compound (a-1) to prepare a comparative composition. Alternatively, 95 parts of the present liquid crystal composition as a mother liquid crystal were mixed with 5 part of the compound (c-1) to prepare another comparative composition. The liquid crystal compositions were determined for the physical properties, with the results shown in Table 1.

Table 1 shows that the present compounds have a higher clearing point of 92.1° C. by approximately 8% and a higher elastic constant ratio K₃₃ /K₁₁ by approximately 33%, while having an approximately equivalent level of viscosity, as compared with the tricyclic compound (a-1) containing an alkyl group on both side chains described in Japanese Patent Kokai 57-165328. Further, it can be seen that the compound (c-1) having the same skeleton as the present compounds has only 5% solubility in the above mother liquid crystal, a remarkably poor compatibility and a higher viscosity by approximately 6%, as compared with the present compounds.

This demonstrates that the compounds of the present invention have more improved characteristics than the prior art compounds.
